Does Shanghainese Arogant? (1)

We have a popular saying: you don't know how poor you are if you go to Guangzhou (a city in the South of China); how countrified if you go to Shanghai (a well-known Metropolit); how regretful if you have got married before you go to Chongqing (a city in the Southwest of China) where I have written some words before.
Starting from today. I'd like to write something about the city of Shanghai. First, I must admit that I don't quite understand this city and the people who are living there. I only have three months of working experience in Shanghai in 2001, so it's totally my personal opinion. Generally, I like Shanghai and people who live there.
I heard that Shanghainese only respect people from Beijing. They even considered Hongkongnese were rednecks before 1949 (the year Communist China was established). When I was a child, my father told me that most Shanghainese do not make friends with people from other places, and only marry Shanghainese. If they go to other cities, they would try any possible ways to speak the Shanghai dialect.
In addition, my older sister's husband was born from a traditional Shanghai family. Their family moved from Shanghai to Chongqing (the place we are living) in the 1960s.

Countrified doesn't really work here - how about 'rural'?

Better ending with a comma and linking to next sentence

Very good, well-written. I lived in Shanghai for a while and even visited Chongqing (although after I had married!) so this resonates with me!

DoesAre Shanghainese Apeople arrogant?

First, I must admit that I don't quite understand this city andor the people who are living there.

"my personal opinion" is not wrong, but "my opinion" is a lot more natural. as an opinion is a personal belief, saying "personal opinion" is repetitive

When I was a child, my father told me that most Shanghainese people do not make friends with people from other places, and only marry other Shanghainese people.

Thank you! I guess "Shanghainese people" is more respectful than "Shanghainese".
